Results from Poor Man's College:

There is no higher religion than human service. To work for the common good is the greatest creed.: Woodrow Wilson (1856 - 1924)
Silence is one of the great arts of conversation, as allowed by Cicero himself, who says, "there is not only an art, but an eloquence in it." A well bred woman may easily and effectually promote the most useful and elegant conversation without speaking a word. The modes of speech are scarcely more variable than the modes of silence.: Tom Blair
He is great who confers the most benefits.: Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803 - 1882)
No more important duty can be urged upon those who are entering the great theater of life than simple loyalty to their best convictions.: Edwin Hubbel Chapin
Be noble minded! Our own heart, and not other men's opinions of us, forms our true honor.: Johann Von Schiller
There is always room for a man of force, and he makes room for many.: Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803 - 1882)
The highest manifestation of life consists in this: that a being governs its own actions. A thing which is always subject to the direction of another is somewhat of a dead thing.: Thomas Aquinas
The best lightning rod for your protection is your own spine.: Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803 - 1882)
At the bottom no one in life can help anyone else in life; this one experiences over and over in every conflict and every perplexity: that one is alone. That isn't as bad as it may first appear; and again it is the best thing in life that each should have everything in himself; his fate, his future, his whole expanse and world.: Rainer Maria Rilke (1875 - 1926)
Rebellion against your handicaps gets you nowhere. Self-pity gets you nowhere. One must have the adventurous daring to accept oneself as a bundle of possibilities and undertake the most interesting game in the world - making the most of one's best.: Harry Emerson Fosdick (1878 - 1969)
